What's the most depressing film you've ever watched?
Discussion
Am I alone in finding Threads absolutely compelling and fascinating? I think it's because it's so amazingly real.
We Need To Talk About Kevin is downright disturbing rather than depressing, and one that always gets me - and I've no idea why - is the end of Local Hero, when he goes back to the US and leaves everything he has come to love behind.
As for A Serbian Film, just reading the Wikipedia entry for that makes me feel ill. No thankyou.

Lots of mine have already been mentioned in this thread already, but i would add "Shame" (Fassbender is a sex addict) and "Never let me go" - very bleak film about children at a special school who eventually learn they were created artificially purely to act as future organ donors for their "originals". They way they all cope with the prospect of their inevitable deaths at a young age without fighting against it is pretty sad viewing.
Finally, has Schindlers List been mentioned? I coped with the whole film but lost it at the end when Schindler notices his ring, and wonders whether he could have saved another life had he sold that.
